Powering off the Reader
Your reader will automatically power off if any of the following occur:
Your smart card is removed from your reader
The reader’s battery runs out
The reader times out (a configurable setting)
When the reader is powered off, nothing will be displayed in the LED panel.
Charging the Reader
Your charging cable separates into a plug end and a mini-USB cable. You may charge your
reader using the charging cable plugged into an electrical wall outlet or use just the mini-
USB portion of the charging cable to connect between your reader and a USB port on a
computer.
It is recommended that the reader be charged whenever the battery status icon on the
reader indicates that the reader battery level is less than 20%. The reader should be
charged from an AC power source using the supplied charger and cable. A red LED on the
bottom of the reader will illuminate indicating that the reader is charging. Once the red LED
is no longer illuminated, the battery is fully charged and the charging source should then be
removed from the reader.
During charging, a red LED on the bottom of your reader will indicate that the battery is
being charged. When the red LED turns off, your reader battery is fully charged.
NOTE:
Most smartphone charging cables with a mini-USB-a connector will also charge your
reader.
